the cut of your cinema

Marvel Studios‘ Thor: Ragnarok is heading for a stellar opening weekend with $121 million, well ahead of this weekend’s second-highest grossing film, A Bad Moms Christmas, which made just over $17 million.

STXfilms‘ R-rated A Bad Moms Christmas took a very distant second spot, falling short of the $23 million debut of its predecessor. Starring Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn, Cheryl Hines, Christine Baranski and Susan Sarandon, the holiday-themed comedy earned a B CinemaScore from audiences.

In its second frame, Lionsgate’s Jigsaw came in at third with $6.7, up against Tyler Perry’s Boo 2! A Made Halloween (also Lionsgate) at fourth with $4.6 million and Geostorm (Warner Bros. Pictures) at fifth with $3 million.
